TRIM44 knockdown inhibits vascular formation of RMECs induced by high glucose. (A) Angiogenesis assay was carried out to assess the tube formation in RMECs after 12 h-treatment or 24 h-treatment (magnification ×100). (B) The number of tube formation was quantified. (C-D) VEGFA levels in RMECs were detected by ELISA and western blot assays. ELISA, enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay. ^nsP > 0.05; ^*P < 0.05; ^***P < 0.001. n = 3 per group
